Y’all know I have a sweet tooth and like any true foodie I like to try new things. So when I experimented with no bake cookies last Christmas and tried a Haystack for the first time, I knew I had found something special. These simple 3-4 ingredient treats are made with melted peanut butter and butterscotch poured over crunchy chow mein noodles. My original recipe was one of my most popular on the blog, so I decided for Valentine’s Day I would make a twist on the original Haystacks and switch out chocolate for peanut butter. This also makes them school and church friendly since peanut butter treats are usually not allowed there because of children’s allergies.Try this recipe today. It only takes 5 minutes to make and I bet you’ll love them as much as I do!

I used 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup butterscotch chips. You could sub milk chocolate if you’d like.

Add the butterscotch and chocolate chips to a double boiler.

Stir until melted and smooth.

Pour the melted chocolate mixture on top of the chow mein noodles.

Coat to combine well.

You want every piece covered!

I use a large spoon and drop scoops on a lined baking sheet.

Depending on the size you should be able to get 18 or 20 Haystacks.

Let harden and cool.

That’s all there is to it folks!
Easy peasy and a delish Valentine’s treat!

❤️This week marks 2 years since our beloved cocker spaniel Dylan passed away. I created this free printable Rainbow Bridge poem on the blog in honor of Dylan. It can be customized with your pet's photo and would be a  cherished framed gift for someone who has lost a special pet. #rainbowbridge #doglove #dogheaven #rip #mydog  #neverforgotten #rainbowbridge🌈

We spent Earth Day 2022 in Springfield at the picnic and a movie event in the gardens. It was the perfect sunny afternoon with a breeze and we shared a delicious charcuterie picnic and watched "Bee Movie". The girls did crafts, played in the park, listened to speakers and poetry, and @theparkboard gave us a tree to take home. We had a great time and everyone slept the whole drive home (except Mom)! #earthday2022 #springfieldmo #missourilife #movienight #earthday #picnic #familyfun
